    The government are coming under increasing pressure about it's plans for HS2. Not the aroma of rotten eggs that is H2S. The high speed rail link is only going to be availabe to the Morris Dancers which will have an adverse effect on the rest of Britain.

    It's argued that companies will relocate where this service is in place and could also have knock on effects for the retention of airplane travel from Scotland to London. This government really have not got a clue what they are doing. This will further ditance Scotland from Westminster. After they went "soft" on Clydeside. I honestly don't think they know whether they want an independent Scotland or not.

    I suppose they are stuck between a rock and hard place, can't afford to alienate the southern softies but can't be seen to giving in to the skirt wearing Scotchies.

    More food for thought.

    Here we go again,
    We're on the road again,
    We're on the road again,
    We're on our way to Paradise,
    We love the jungle deep,
    That's where the lion sleeps, (yeeeaaaaahhhh)
    For in those evil eyes,
    They have no place in Paradise.

    Would people relocate to somewhere just because you can get to London a few minutes quicker?

    By the time all the places along the route have got a station, it'll stop so often it'll probably be slower. <laugh>

    Anyway, Scotland should just pay up it's bit to the national debt and go back to crofting.


    ....and another thing, why can't we have an English representation in Parliament? We've got Paddy's taffs and jockanese interfering...

    Personally I would shut down all the main line trains from the capital so as to make it as difficult as possible for anyone who wants to get the train to london. I'd also close down all the main motorway routes. As anyone who doesn't actually live here is always slating it I doubt they'll be that bothered and we'll cut pollution and save billions on train costs. Everyone's a winner baby.

    After Independence all Scots households shall be allocated free hovercars and jetpacks . There shall also be the peoples monorail that will travel at supersonic speeds and be free to everyone who voted yes . No voters will pay a small charge and be seated at the back or on the roof .

    Our monorail will end at the border as there will be no earthly reason to leave our socialist utopia and slum it in the dual railed Nigelshire .

    Ram yer H2S who the **** wants to go to Birmingham anyhoo .
